They deserve the success they have not because of hacks but because they earned it. The Russo brothers, directs of Shang chi, Ms. Marvel, Loki, Wanda vision, Ragnarok, Iron man and i could go on aren’t some no skill hacks or hired hands. Maybe tarantino should focus on making things that the general populace would want to watch like the Star Trek he is supposedly attached to. I for one I’m not spending 20 bucks to watch a TV drama that are actually done better on streamers now. Your time is up.

Biden or Harris have refused to use the "Bully Pulpit" method on both Joe Manchin & Krysten Sinema on getting progressive policies passed (like the Green New Deal, $15 an hour minimum wage, free college, etc.)

Shouldn't have permabanned yet another long time member of the community, instead should have required him to explain how he envisioned this theory operating. And how it would have contrasted from what did happen to where people who consume many forms of media believe these two Democrats who vote with Biden more often than a number of other Democratic Senators to be "GQP" Senators.

It’s such an oddly blank and soulless stare. The eyes almost seem furrowed enough to express something, but the lower half of the face is just doing nothing.

I don’t understand how a company could release key art like this and think that it’s good enough. It’s like they just took the in game idle face, which due to technical limitations it’s understandable why it would be pretty plain, and took some screenshots of it. Like why would you lead with something like this in your marketing?

If 2024 is just round two of Trump Vs. Biden, I'm voting 3rd party. Same if Harris replaces Biden.

I'm also positive a lot of people will either do the same or stay at home, basically being a repeat of 2016.

Really? What the hell has Joe Biden done during the past 22 months that benefits us, & not benefit himself & his billionaire, corporate donors? Nothing.

Biden or Harris have refused to use the "Bully Pulpit" method on both Joe Manchin & Krysten Sinema on getting progressive policies passed (like the Green New Deal, $15 an hour minimum wage, free college, etc.), he keeps funding more money towards the military, the police (& wanting to hire 100,000 more cops over the next 5 years to terrorize POC's/Minorities like myself & protesters),

He keeps funding more money to Ukraine for his proxy war, & you have him, Nancy Pelosi, & everyone in Congress (including the #FraudSquad) funding money towards a nuclear war as well as trying to start World War III. By the way, the US had overthrown Ukraine's Government in which the war wouldn't have started without the US & NATO being a part of before 2014.

And of course, constantly ignores us who put his ass in charge of the country for rich, wealthy oligarch donors & lobbyists.

The Democratic party is just too corrupt. They pretend to care & give a shit about you when they need your votes, but when it comes time to put people over party & country, it's always excuses. I'm done with them. I've already gave in to voting for Biden once, & that's because of liberal voters kept badgering me on about "If you vote 3rd party, you're voting for Republicans or Trump." That won't be happening again.

If anyone's getting my vote, it'll be either from Independents, 3rd parties, write-in candidates, candidates with no party affiliation or nonpartisan. That's it.

This fucking guy.

The Presidential "Bully Pulpit" lol. I see someone is recycling progressive blog talking points from '09 when they seemed to think Obama could just get on TV and magically harangue conservative Democrats and moderate Republicans into supporting a more liberal package. I wonder how he thinks Manchin and Sinema would respond this time.

I wonder if this guy or his other lefty friends on Era have seen the polls saying that "defund the police" is radioactive and that minority and poor communities respond that they actually want more police presence in crime-ridden areas. Or perceived that the "progressive" approach to crime is a millstone on Democrats across the country and is getting backlash even in liberal strongholds (Bye Chesa Boudin!!).

Also interesting how he blames Sleepy Joe for trying to start World War III instead of the leader and country that chose to launch the invasion of their neighbor only to get punched in the mouth for their trouble. It couldn't be that this guy that is obviously deep into the far left, anti-West, Russia-sympathizing kook-o-sphere isn't actually just upset that Russia and Putin weren't allowed to get their win and that everything else isn't just window dressing on top of that. I guess imperialism is okay when Russia does it and Ukraine, a country that suffered for almost a century under the Russian-led USSR, isn't allowed self-determination.

[benjipwns]

Biden and Harris just needed to deliver some slick Twitter burns yet instead they refused to use the Bully Pulpit and now the Green New Deal, which didn't even have the support of the rest of the Democrats, is lost to history and our democracy is literally burning to ash just like the planet literally is.

Like if you changed this with brown and black people, it would still be a terrible response. Because one game is more diverse, people have to accept another being less so? Absolutely bonkers.

People don't have to "accept" anything, I frankly don't give a fuck what you accept.

My problem is people like you's immediate kneejerk reaction to literally fucking everything is to have the most inhumanly uncharitable interpretation. It's obnoxious beyond fucking belief.

I'm a POC myself, and this is obviously not a "IF I'M OK WITH IT YOU SHOULD BE TOO", but maybe take a second to consider that if someone like me can take the clear signs of an open-minded person in other areas of his work and realize that the man is trying his best to understand societal issues he literally did not grow up around or understands in the slightest, then maybe you can do that too.

Obviously voicing things out is extremely important and he should be told that we want more diversity and representation. But that doesn't mean he's just a fucking racist and that's that.

I won't comment about FFXIV diversity but I saw many mentions of lack of diversity The Witcher 3 and Kingdom Come.

I was born in the 80's in a small town in Eastern Europe. I think the first time in my life I ever saw a non-white person was in early 2000s. Maybe some of you know better about medieval Europe demographics. My own experience from actually living in 20th century Eastern Europe is different.

"The setting is fantasy, people can do unrealistic stuff, therefore all diversity marks should be checked" argument is moot in my opinion. If I have a medieval fantasy setting where dwarves and halflings don't exist, do I offend somehow persons of short stature, who for sure existed in medieval times? If I have a medieval fantasy setting set in tropical archipelago, do I have to include group of people based on Inuit culture living there, because hey, there is magic and why shouldn't people from arctic climate be able to use some spells to enhance their sailing range and just travel all around the world like it's a school trip? But what if I choose to *not* have an arctic climate at all in my setting? Am I discriminating against Inuit culture?

BTW is there any NPC in FFXIV who is based on Slavic culture? If not, should I feel offended?

Turns out it's kind of a challenge.

So Im really jonesing for a game that I can mindlessly grind in but I'm tired of the FPS aspect of Destiny 2 and my old go to of TROVE just isn't hooking me anymore.

Can anyone help me find an MMORPG that doesn't have overly sexual depictions of women?

I found SWTOR appealing but according to common sense media, it's got scantily clad dancers showing cleavage and such. Being that this game and review is from 2011, have they removed that? Times have changed, especially with the star wars franchise.

Are there any other good examples out there? Preferably free or free to start at least.

Thanks for any help.

How do these people function in life.

FFXIV has some scandalous armor but generally by player choice and for both genders. Most of the important women in the story and environmental NPCs are dressed appropriately and there's no egregious animation like Lost Ark.

If seeing players dressed in depictions like that bother you, then you might want to avoid though.

yeah, i guess i might be fucked then.

like I feel like people just skimmed your post because it sounds like your issues was more than it just having scantily clad armor pieces?

yeah, any overt sexual depictions of women is my line basically

And also to say, "just avoid those towns"... What if my quest wants me to go there? Then what?

You're not going to get that in any MMO because it's functionally impossible to prevent dumb weirdos from playing as female characters and running around with no armor on. The presence of other people will always trend toward that.

But you don't have to engage with those people. You can ignore them or just not go to the towns where they congregate and do that weirdo stuff.

Don’t be an ass, I know multiple trans people who use games that allow you to make your own character (MMOs esp) to freely express their gender and sexuality. Broad strokes like this are damaging to more people than just cishets.

I have issues with devs making characters like that (like weird, objectified NPCs) or even female armor like that can be a turn off. But let players express themselves in the way they want (short of hate speech)

I love how every argument on there reaches one conclusive rationalization to win the point --   "I'm being harmed.  You want me to be harmed?  You want me to die?"    It's the easiest win ever.  You make them think you're in hell suffering, and then it escalates to you're going to die from that suffering if it doesn't end, so we gotta figure out how to make it end before anything else.   It's like saving someone from a burning building -- you gotta forgo rational thought in the moment and save that person before they get burned to a crisp.  But, hey, uh, just wondering.... why is your house on fire every single day?   "Why would you ask me that?  You want me to burn, don't you?  You want the flames to burn me up dont you, you bitch?"

I’m too lazy to manually copy paste, but the MMO prude was having a fucking meltdown before the mods locked the thread for his own safety 

Holy shit

I've already accepted 3 of these 4, why the fuck is everyone still dogpiling me like I don't accept shit?! I never fucking said I can't deal with boobs at all but some people are saying shit like I can't deal with ankles.

People are FUCKING dog piling me and just going in, I have been messaging the mods to close the thread, I'm fucking done with this already, leave me the fuck alone!

There is a principle in psychology about how the normal person in a group of weirdos is pushed out and shunned.  I don't think it applies here but I don't get why they are mocking him

I think I remember someone saying that Montreal, especially, is full of racists. I've never been there, so I don't know if that's true or even if I'm remembering that correctly.

I've never spent anything on lottery tickets, and I think it's a tax on the poor, but I'm going to cave and chip in $5-$10 tomorrow.

There is a lot of backhanded "minorities aren't real Quebecers" stuff.

to be fair, whenever i hear about anything quebec, it's always from some anglo canadian talking shit about them in a way they'd never do about another minority

Even the Acadians from the French Shore shit talk the Quebecois. It's the national pastime after hockey.

The truth is somewhere in the middle in this case.

I think I heard something sometime about someone somewhere too, but I might have dreamt it.
